Steph-. David Capasso- ‎Noel! Happy Chanukah!

I have your new email in my blackberry now- DELETING that heinous one from your former employer_- aka– The national corporate carpet bagger anti worker pathetic -always playing Gotcha! – (and then endorsing David Vitter) RAG call the TP!! I finally cancelled after 25 years! But–
I am still addicted -had to buy Sunday again -lord- get me a 12 step group ” TP/Anonymous” )

Kudos on your recent commentary today-. – well done! Telling the State Legislature-.will you Get to the table-? And how will you “dress”
John Bel is ready to SET the table- and be there!
and see which GOP will arrive!

Danny Martigny Yes
Sam Jones. YES!!
Abramson he BETTER be a Yes
John Alarrio-? Man that will be sweet!
there should be a special category ‎for former Dems turned GOP-then realized they have been fucked so long by Jindal -and his cronies-
GOP Chairman Roger Villere- ( The florist!!-
Get me some Dead flowers for your party Roger-. You are actually Pushing up daisies sir!! ).
and Bob Livingston!-the man behind Jindal and Vitter- Mr deal maker! The Karl Rove of the Bayou- I don’t know HOW John Breaux even has Lunch with the guy much less do bidness-like every week!? But My naivete –knowing-tHEY all do it- all consultants for “clients” -. Now Mary Landrieu will be faced with that choice–. But for now–

Give em HELL John Bel!!!

Wife is Teacher -and Union! Education-
Affordable Healthcare
Pro State employee
Pro workers-. (and union is ok)
Pro environment
Pro Hunting Gun Safety
Pro Life – (Democrats for Life are VERY different than GOP Pro Life sickos- period) we believe in the ENTIRE Life of all people Equally- and the privacy of doctor patient relationship needs to be respected- whether it’s a woman -or a veteran! Amen
Prison Reform-. Family of sheriffs/law enforcement

The new DOC chairman?
New DHH?
Walter Leger- amazing move- New Orleans will be well represented. Weslet Bishop %100 on board!- for years wesley would speak jindal’s name-essentially hiding from the “wrath” of Jindal‎-killing any bill from an opponent.-

Happy Holidays to you! 2016- I say—

Givem Hell Hillary! – Hey I love Bernie- but Hillary will unite the party like never before!- book it Dano!

The GOP will get %24 Latino (if that much) %95 African American ‎ %5 Labor. %95 gay -.%95 environmental _- And last but not least — women!

Who wins women vote?-. I will put my money on next woman president!-

Steph!! I will be writing!-. Blog- -articles-. Positition Papers-. -Democratic platform proposals-. Criminal Justice pamphlets and advising /consulting Medical Marijuana “clients” -in other words- . Propoals for whoever is interested – including Agriculture Commissioner Mike Strain-

Maybe convincing folk like John Georges to put a Dual column together – “Progressive” v. GOP Right wing (rag) perspective-.
– Tea Party v. The Green Tea Army

– And let the games begin- James Varney and Ericson think they are soooo cool with their Grover Norquist/Ollie North‎/bashing public employe crap- bashing everything pro government-
. Hey boys- . As long as Jindal takes his public salary for the next 24 days (we are mobilizing a jazz funeral for Jindal-. Not clear how or when but say tuned) – and vitter is #1 senior Pubic official on the DOLE-. They need to shut the F- up about public employees!! ‎-. Maybe Roger Villere has a job for Jindal after Jan 1-!?–Ti love his ads on TV during sporting events ” Villere’s florist- always there for you!” ‎-while his party’s candidate for governor Mr vitter was demonizing people i(ncludng the Lieutenant Gov! ) -Love you Roger- love to debate sometime! Anytime! -love to read a column by Roger Villere!-then respond to him.-. 2016 -Bring it-.
For thev people of Louisiana– this is a moment…

Thx Steph!-. Peace. Joy-. And a Prayer for Peace!

Brothers and Sisters-. We are having a blast – working people- their families – we are fired up ‎! So many great folks here this afternoon-.

Hey- Jay Dardenne-. My brother David Capasso- good union man- jewish /Italian Presbyterian – said to me -. Hey -it’s cool to be Jewish- my mother’s side- and that’s cool- the BEST thing I Could say about Jay Dardenne – is he was raised by a nice Jewish family-. – — But —

But ‎Jay–. If you know your bible- you will clearly see that the “PHAROAH” Who has been sitting on his Governors THRONE for 8 years-. Is the PROBLEM!

Did you EVER say ONE WORD to your people about PHAROAH Jindal??-. Mr Dardenne? I didn’t think so !

Mr Vitter Scott- Angelle- are they here today?

We know one man who has taken on Jindal EVERY DAY of his political career-.

. On the FIRST DAY in office -.watch how this Military man- hunter- his wife is a lifelong teacher- advocate for the poor – defender of public employees- ‎ takes on The Pharoah – (Jindal should resign like fucking TODAY!!- what a great campaign – Wisconsin /Nw Jersey and Louisiana Unions/ progressive Democrats- coalitions – DEMANDING theat Scott Walker /Chris Christie and Governor Payuish Swindal – RESIGN- as of NOW!

Mayor- it’s been a while since we’ve seen you at our Labor Day AFL CIO picnic (Monday 9/7- City Park Marconi Meadows10-5pm). ‎-.But we really want you there sir. AFL CIO President Tiger Hammond is looking forward to introducing John Bell Edwards our next Governor -I thought you could do the intro- but just being there would be awesome! Have a beer and the best burger in town!

I know Being mayor of New Orleans is a tough job- -sometimes firefighters and public employees- yes-sheriff deputies (can you and Gusman GET ALONG? Lord! Call in the feds for help!) and even police officers may take issue with some of your decisions – but – on this Labor Day 2015 – Mayor Mitch- .from the United Labor Unions Local 100/ A Community Voice – / NAACP Labor /Religious Executive Committee , and the First Presbyterian church (fpcno.org). Which turns 200 years old in 2018 -. David Capasso is saying : ‎. I got your back! –

. And Tell Brother Maurice sister Madeline and. Papa Moon- to join you!! ‎ Union yes! Living wages.!

1) you signed the City contract wage increase! $10.55/hour Plus 6 paidd sick days.! AMEN –

2) YOU led the charge to take down hateful monuments- so NO can and will move forward! That statue -that’s General E Lee-
They should knock em on his ass. –
if you ask me!
See I ain’t no Grey Coat -if you ask me
-I don’t suffer for fools-and I don’t play “Dixie”. ( Mike West “Dixie ” 1994) – amen

3) you are and have always been pro union- and pro public employee (you said in 2010 “I’ll do whatever Tiger Hammond tells me to do” amen!

4) you are starting to take on Jindal and Vitter – Yes! Keep it UP! – EVERY DAY! That Gov Swindal! ‎ Jindal said – “he had to make some tough decisions +-for the GOOD of the state- and we are better off for it.”. Jindal said that with a friggin staright face, Howabout the Mayor of NO requesting /demanding that Jindal step down- save the state the salary- jindal-you are ” SOO busy-“‎ running fo President – we not only don’t want you back here- but PLEASE keep your hands off any future decisions! Can I get an amen!?

Now help us bring a Democrat into the Governors Office -John Bell Edwards needs you-Mr Mayor. -and ALL your people+our people – a huge coalition is mobilizing -for a man who many STILL do not even know his name! -. We are going. To go nuts on Voter registration in next 22 days- and turnout for next 53 days – .

Progressive Democrats – independents- ‎ Businesses- who support New Orleans – church/ non profit folks -Lets Anti up and kick in sir!

We get JBE in the runoff and turn out. %60 -in NO- we WIN!- New Orleans can and WILL decide this election.

Isn’t it time you had an ally in Baton Rouge-Mayor? Working together -City Council- state and federal level-. What a concept!!

After what the GOP did to your sister Mary-_ the hardest working Senator on the Planet Earth for New Orleans and Louisiana and the nation. (my wife and son Nathan Luke are not too happy about Keystone Pipeline-but hey- being a senator is tough!)
Look at these names -and understand the stakes:

Bob Livingston
Vitter
Jindal
Roger Villere
Bill Cassidy-
Jeff Landry? ( are you frggin kidding me??!)
Do I need to say more?

David Vitter will try to duck and hide in the next 8 weeks- ‎avoiding debates- just like Bill Cassidy-same playbook- GOP wants to keep Vitter out of sight

DO NOT let him get away Big Mitch-
Confront Vitter EVERY chance! – every issue
When Vitter trashes New Orleans- voters want to see a fighter -‎that holds NOTHING back!‎ –

President Obama saw how hard you work for your city- -but for the future of the State of Louisiana-
Mr Mayor -lets finish the job! ‎ UNITED together –

The People United ‎-will Never be defeated!
